From a still paper form to a soaring cinematic reveal — one controlled eight-second sequence generated with Seedance 2.5.
Build a beginning, a change, and an ending — not just one extended shot.
Five distinct videos show continuity, narrative progression, references, camera direction and native audio.
One 30-second story, shown as a complete sequence rather than disconnected clips.
Move from a human-scale opening into a monumental frozen-wall reveal while preserving scene direction.
Hold the dogs, harnesses, snow texture, and travel direction together across a fast outdoor sequence.
Use a deliberate camera move to amplify a restrained stage performance instead of overpowering it.
Use a quiet forest-cabin morning to connect tea preparation, room ambience, and outdoor sound into one calm sequence.
Five visual formats for filmmakers, brands, creators and performers.
Longer stories. Stable subjects. Directed camera and performance.
Shorter generations with a simpler creative brief.
Open Seedance 2.0 →| What you are deciding | Seedance 2.5 | Seedance 2.0 |
|---|---|---|
| Final output | Recommended. Better suited to longer stories, stable characters, directed shots and complex reference packs. | Useful when a shorter, simpler clip already solves the job. |
| Maximum useful length | Up to 30 seconds for a longer narrative sequence. | 4–15 seconds for short-form generation. |
| Control | Stronger reference, camera, performance and audio direction. | Simpler generation with fewer production decisions. |
| Price | Starts at $1.30 for 4 seconds at 480p. The default 5-second 480p generation is $1.60. | Check the live Seedance 2.0 workspace for its current generation price. |
| Choose it when | The clip will be published, presented to a client, or needs multiple shots to remain coherent. | You need a short, straightforward clip and do not require the longer narrative workflow. |
Text, start/end frames, reference images and reference audio use the standard price. Only a reference video moves the job into the reference-video tier.
| Output length | 480p | 720p | 480p + reference video | 720p + reference video |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 4 seconds | $1.30 | $2.80 | $6.40 | $14.40 |
| 5 seconds (default) | $1.60 | $3.50 | $6.60 | $14.80 |
| 8 seconds | $2.50 | $5.60 | $7.10 | $16.10 |
| 10 seconds | $3.10 | $7.00 | $7.50 | $16.90 |
| 15 seconds | $4.70 | $10.60 | $8.50 | $19.00 |
| 20 seconds | $6.30 | $14.10 | $9.40 | $21.10 |
| 25 seconds | $7.80 | $17.60 | $10.30 | $23.20 |
| 30 seconds | $9.40 | $21.10 | $11.30 | $25.40 |
Reference images and reference audio do not raise the tier. A reference video does. Final price is shown in the GlobalGPT generator before you submit.
Write the scene and add the start/end frames or visual references currently accepted by the GlobalGPT generator.
Select the available duration, aspect ratio and resolution settings, then generate the video.
Check continuity, motion and audio, adjust the prompt or inputs, then generate again or export the final result.
Plan with an LLM. Build references with image models. Generate with Seedance 2.5. Compare with other video models.
Two additional launch tests show a longer action beat and a controlled science-fiction variation without presenting them as community submissions.

Seedance 2.5 is an AI video generation model designed for longer narrative videos, visual-reference guidance, character consistency, camera direction and native audio.
Yes. Seedance 2.5 is available through GlobalGPT's video generation workspace.
Seedance 2.5 is designed to support longer single-generation videos of up to 30 seconds, subject to the settings currently exposed in the GlobalGPT workspace.
GlobalGPT provides text prompts, start and end frames, visual references, aspect ratio, duration and resolution controls for the Seedance 2.5 generation workflow.
Seedance 2.5 focuses on longer narrative construction and more advanced reference and direction capabilities. Seedance 2.0 remains useful for shorter, faster video generation workflows.
Complex physics, crowded scenes, many interacting subjects and highly constrained reference packs may still require repeated generations and careful prompt design.
Create longer, more controllable AI videos with references, directed movement, consistent subjects and native audio inside GlobalGPT.
